Nürnberg – more than almost any other city in Germany – stands for culinary delights. The town is known worldwide for its finger-sized sausages. The delicious Nuremberg Bratwurst is a not-to-be-missed treat. As “3 im Weggla“ you can nibble them, packed in a crispy bun, right out of your hand. The proper way to eat them is in a historical bratwurst kitchen: served on a pewter plate with a fresh beer.

At Christmas time, everything in Nürnberg revolves around the Christkindlesmarkt and Christmas baked goods – Nürnberger Lebkuchen are recognized internationally and shipped all around the world. The people of Nürnberg itself love their gingerbread and place a lot of value on the high quality of this export hit.

The oldest and largest pedestrian zone in Europe stretches through Nuremberg's historical Old Town in a golden triangle of fashion, lifestyle and luxury. Yet even in the narrow streets below the castle or in the hip district Gostenhof (GoHo) exceptional and trendy finds can be made.
